Brandywine Living at Potomac sits in a quiet suburb right across from the Bullis School and overlooks the Falls Road Golf Course, and you'll find a three-story English Tudor-style building with 120 suites that come in floor plans ranging from studios to two-bedroom and semi-private rooms, so there's a choice of private or shared accommodation to fit different needs, with each suite fully furnished, offering private bathrooms, kitchenettes, air-conditioning, high-speed internet, cable TV, and telephone access, plus some options have nice big windows that let in lots of natural light. The building's LEED Silver Certification means it follows energy and environmental standards, and it's got plenty of handicap accessible features.
The community provides assisted living, independent living, and memory care services, so seniors who need different levels of help-from just a little to a lot-can find support here, with a staff trained for personal care, medication help, daily activities like bathing or getting dressed, and specialized support for Alzheimer's and dementia, including their Revere℠ Memory Care program designed to give safe, guided care in a secure setting, plus short-term respite care is available for folks recovering from surgery or when caregivers need a break. There's also home care for non-medical help for those staying in their own residence.
All residents get 24-hour supervision, a 24-hour call system, 12-16 hours of daily nursing care, and transportation to doctor's appointments or help arranging rides, so family members can feel there's someone keeping an eye out for their loved ones at all times. Housekeeping and linen services keep things clean, and there's laundry help too. Meals are freshly prepared and served each day in different dining areas-a full-service grand dining room, a bistro, a cafe, and even a bar area-with menus tailored for dietary needs and often using fresh, organic ingredients.
You'll notice Brandywine Living at Potomac includes a wide range of places for people to gather, like a theater with comfortable red and black seats, a music room, a library, a parlor, and multipurpose spaces, including courtyards, a therapy pool with a pool lift, and a gym. Pets are welcome, which can help some residents feel more at home, and there are both indoor and outdoor patios for fresh air. Common spaces like the large aquarium in memory care, elegant fireplaces, and a grand staircase with a chandelier give the place a comfortable yet upscale feel for residents who enjoy style without fussiness.
The facility offers plenty of activities each week, with a structured calendar full of games, music, walks, educational programs, and regular events designed by the staff and by residents themselves, so people can stay engaged both socially and physically. Staff have received kind words in reviews for communication, care, housekeeping, and meals. The place aims to respect each resident's independence, lets people choose their own routines where possible, and adapts the level of help as people's needs change over time. The facility is part of Cogir Senior Living, and it's reviewed biannually by A Place for Mom for licensing and standards.
Brandywine Living at Potomac tries to balance comfort, safety, and social activities for seniors who want care that changes with them, and offers both quiet spaces and options for community involvement, all in a well-maintained, good-looking building in a peaceful location.
